Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

the segment inside the triangle is an angle bisector and divides the opposite side into segments that are proportional to the other 2 sides, that is

$\frac{x}{2}$ = $\frac{12}{4}$ = 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

x = 6

What is the missing numerator? blank over five plus eighteen over twenty equals thirty over twenty 8 5 3 2

Oliga [24]

Given:

$\dfrac{?}{5}+\dfrac{18}{20}=\dfrac{30}{20}$

To find:

The missing value.

Solution:

Let x be the missing value.

We have,

$\dfrac{x}{5}+\dfrac{18}{20}=\dfrac{30}{20}$

$\dfrac{x}{5}+\dfrac{9}{10}=\dfrac{3}{2}$

Subtract $\dfrac{9}{10}$ from both sides.

$\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{3}{2}-\dfrac{9}{10}$

$\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{15-9}{10}$

$\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{6}{10}$

$\dfrac{x}{5}=\dfrac{3}{5}$

Multiplying both sides by 5, we get

$x=3$

So, the missing value is 3.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
